The Green of It All
Sea-facing views across Crete's rolling hills make this villa's terrace a stand-out. The covered patio, the private pool and the sunny lounge chairs provide ample opportunities to enjoy the fresh air and the scenery. Some of the elements inside are a bit flashy for our liking – particularly the boldly-printed blinds – but we do appreciate the exposed stone walls, which add a touch of authentic character to every room. And the location is perfect for exploring the island's southern stretch. While Kalamaki Beach is the nearest, we recommend a trip to Matala, a laid-back village with a sandy beach and bohemian shops – it's just a short drive away. *If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a free travel cot and high chair *There isn't a desk, but the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace if you need to catch up on work during your stay*You may have to climb some stairs here*The pool isn't fenced, so childr...More Details

This achingly beautiful villa made from natural materials promises an endlessly relaxing stay in one of Crete's best-kept secrets. Located in the pretty fishing village of Elounda, you're a short 2-km drive from the sandy shores and charming town, and yet completely removed from the holiday crowds.We particularly love the private infinity pool overlooking the Aegean Sea, complete with sun lounge chairs and a veranda terrace. We can think of nothing better than balmy summer evenings spent out here with friends and family, tucking into a mezze platter of tzatziki, eggplant and feta. Made up of the island's natural stone, Kaliopi, the villa offers heaps of character and traditional style. Inside, it's a calm and comfortable pad with dark and earthy tones, modern furnishings and gorgeous views to have you feeling instantly at ease from the moment you wake up. There's even a home cinema set up and a working fireplace for the odd cosy evening...More Details

Showcasing the beauty of island living, this cluster of villas has access to the golden sand of a private beach just below. Built for sun worshippers, there's ample outdoor space. And everything from alfresco lunches to sunset drinks on the balcony will give you a glimpse of the shimmering sea on the horizon. Accommodating up to forty-two guests across five villas, the space is ideal for family reunions and even small ceremonies. Location-wise, you're about fifteen minutes from Crete's largest city in Crete, Heraklion. *While all the bedrooms and bathrooms aren't photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home. The bedrooms are split between four adjacent villas. *There’s free garage parking available here.*The swimming pools aren't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times. *One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay. *Events may be a...More Details
Proving how beautiful contrast can be, this home combines a modern design with cobbled stone to give it an interesting contemporary feel with a twist. Inside, you’ll also find the continuation of natural textures and woody tones that add warmth and a homey feeling to this home. Take full advantage of that feeling by making yourself comfortable in the living room with a cup of coffee. With numerous stretching windows, you’ll find that sunshine often comes peeking in here – bask in it as you sit in the viewing room. Technically, it’s just a secondary living space, but it has some of the best views of Paximadia, Gavdos, and the infinite blue of the Cretan sea. Outside, you can admire the rocky and rolling hillside as you take a dip in the private swimming pool. Make yourself comfortable in one of the sunloungers and put your nose in a good book as you enjoy the sunshine and total tranquillity that goes hand-in-hand with this home. The char...More Details
